Staten’s Picture Gallery started out as Staten’s Stationery and Cards in 1999. Originally my nature and scenic photographs were used on post cards, greeting cards, and stationery, but my customers wanted more. My customers wanted me to sell framed pictures which forced the company to take a different turn and Staten’s Stationery and Cards evolved into Staten’s Picture Gallery.

I retired from the military after serving 20 years. While I was in the military, I traveled to various places and photographed many beautiful sites. These photographs turned fleeting moments into lifetime memories, and I am honored to get the opportunity to share them with you. I completed my MA in Management from City University, Bellevue, Washington, and I have taken numerous photography classes to enhance my photography skills.
